So this is the story of the latest spin on political sculpture. It involves a 12 foot mobile sculture of George Bush with his pants on fire. It could come to a neighborhood near you. The brainchild of True majority, the glowing statue is on a flat-bed trailer that people around the nation volunteer to drive in their cities for at least 2 days (more if they can).  Obviously, it addresses the issue of the Bush Administration's policy of deception to carry out their aims.
As sculpture, it ain't much, but as the latest in a long line of interactive political sculptures (think the effigies on Guy Fawkes Day) it's a step forward.
